    I totally understand not wanting to do a precision mount, personally. And yet, this thread is exactly why I started mounting myself: ask a shop to do a mount, they agree, I discover a significant...

    Since this thread has an extensive conversation about the minimum tools required for a tuning kit (not just base bevel) I think it's worth mentioning that a sidewall planer is 100x more important...

    Also, I should have mentioned, skiessentials.com has a handful of pairs for cheap! The morning has happened on the east coast and they haven't cancelled my $350+tax+free shipping stormrider.

    Ah, thanks. That makes a lot more sense to me (and causing the pins to separate and close again a bit every stride under weight sure seems like a way to cause wear).
